Morissette to
play gay on Nip/Tuck

First she smooched Sarah Jessica Parker. Now pop star Alanis Morissette will canoodle with Roma Maffia on the hit show Nip/Tuck.

The Grammy-winning singer will join the Nip/Tuck cast for three episodes in the upcoming fourth season, currently being shot in Los Angeles. Morissette will portray Poppy, the love interest of Maffia's Miami anesthesiologist Dr. Liz Cruz.

Morissette, who made a high-profile appearance on Sex and The City a few years back, will join a list of Nip/Tuck guest stars this season that includes gay actors Richard Chamberlain and Rosie O'Donnell as well as Brooke Shields, Kathleen Turner, Jacqueline Bisset, and Melissa Gilbert.

Nip/Tuck was created and is executive-produced by the openly gay Ryan Murphy. (The Advocate)
